Summary:<\/h3>\n

Yesterday was hot statewide underneath the ridge of high pressure aloft. As the ridge axis shifted eastward, south-southwesterly flow aloft was able to drag mid- and high-clouds overhead from New Mexico, resulting in a mostly cloudy afternoon\/evening across the San Juan Mountains, San Luis Valley, Central Mountains, Southeast Mountains, Southeast Plains, Raton Ridge, Front Range, Urban Corridor, and western portions of the Northeast Plains regions. After sunset, mid-level moisture accompanied by a weak disturbance was able to sneak into far western CO (near the Utah border), resulting in a few high-based showers that resulted in virga<\/span> and gusty winds, with a brief sprinkle reaching the surface of higher elevations, at most.<\/p>\n

No flash flooding<\/span> was reported yesterday.<\/p>\n

\nThe map below shows radar-estimated, rainfall gage-adjusted Quantitative Precipitation Estimates (QPE<\/span>) across Colorado. The map is updated daily during the operational season (May 1 – Sep 30) by 11AM. The following six layers are currently available: 24-hour, 48-hour and 72-hour total precipitation, as well as maximum 1-hour, 2-hour and 6-hour precipitation over the past 24 hour period (to estimate where flash flooding<\/span> may have occurred). The accumulation ending time is 6AM of the date shown in the bottom right corner. Also shown optionally are fire burn areas since 2012. The home button in the top left corner resets the map to the original zoom.\n

Note: We have identified a possible underestimation in QPE<\/span> over the southwest part of the state. We are working to on this issue, and will provide an update as soon as possible.<\/span>
